Namaste at Kings Prosecco Lounge - 2

Product Summary

Namaste was formally known as the White Ensign pub.From our experience in our four top restaurants around Sunderland and South Shields we decided to create a venue like no other.

The restaurant has been transformed into an Exclusive Indian Resto alongside a Prosecco lounge & cocktail bar that has live music.

There is no other place like this in South Shields. Located on the border between the seaside town and Sunderland Namaste is one of a kind.

Whether it is our Live Music, Phenomenal Food or Classy Cocktails you know that you can always have a brilliant night away from it all.

“I usually like to do a restaurant review on a Tuesday evening because (a) it’s my night to cook at home and (b) I like to see how busy a restaurant is on a Tuesday to see how popular it is. If it’s busy on a Tuesday, it must have a good reputation and be popular with regular returning customers.

My better half, and I, went to Namaste on a cold Tuesday evening in January and received an extremely warm welcome; in fact the word Namaste’s literal meaning is a warm greeting in Indian. If you’ve ever gone Yoga, you might recognise it.

Recently renovated, Namaste and Kings Prosecco Lounge are situated on King George Road, South Shields; although, in reality, they’re situated just outside Cleadon Village on the A1018. You might remember a few years ago it was the White Ensign Pub, before being transformed into a restaurant and lounge bar, which has live music and a wide range of drink in contemporary surroundings.

We were both really excited to go, as they were awarded ‘Best Northeast Restaurant’ at the English Curry Awards 2017; an accolade you might expect to be awarded to a Newcastle based restaurant, but, no the BEST is right on our doorstep.

Having been shown to our table, which was beautifully set with fresh white linen tablecloth and napkins, our waiter took our drinks order and asked if we wanted the pickle tray with poppadums; how could we say no!

For starters we had a beautiful marinated fillet of salmon (Ajwarni) and the Sheek Roll Kebab from the wide choice of cold and hot starter ranging from lamb, seafood, chicken or vegetable, which were amazing; we tried each other’s.

For main course we opted for the dishes which were recommended to us. I had a lamb dish which was a lamb stew with 3 perfectly cooked lamb chops balancing on the top. Just the right amount of heat, with the perfect blend of Indian spices. My other half had the Mixed Varaval – which included king prawns, king scallop and salmon on the Namaste sauce which was amazing. We both had mixed vegetable rice on the side.

As usual, we were too full for a desert, but cleared our pallets with 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream.

If you’ve been spoilt by awful Indian takeaways, try this Indian restaurant (the BEST in the NE) as they cook and serve the BEST Indian food I’ve ever had”
